Whole-system duct and dryer vent check with before-and-after photos - you see exactly what came out of your vents
That "$99 whole-house special" is a bait ad - the real number appears once they are in your hallway, or the "clean" is a shop-vac at the register. We photograph the inside of your ducts before and after instead.

AfterAir Duct Cleaning Company in North Bergen, NJ
Air duct cleaning in North Bergen typically runs $350 – $650 for a whole-home system, with most jobs completed in a single visit. We’re Hollis Air Duct Cleaning, and we handle the specific challenges this town throws at ductwork: mid-century housing stock climbing the Palisades, shared systems between units, and decades of humidity cycling through galvanized metal that predates modern sealing standards. If you’re ready to talk through what your home needs, call us at (361) 326-5060.
Why North Bergen Homes Are Different
North Bergen sits on the west side of the Hudson Palisades, and that slope shapes almost every duct system we open. The housing stock here runs from 1920s brick singles through post-war two- and three-family frames, many converted over the years without full mechanical updates. Original galvanized ductwork or early rigid metal runs are common, and in multi-unit buildings, shared returns between floors aren’t unusual. That means debris, odors, and allergens can travel across units even when doors are closed.
The humid continental climate here drives hard: hot, sticky summers and cold, damp winters with both systems running hard six months each. That alternating cycle, plus the moisture held in below-grade basements and crawlspaces, creates conditions where mold and dust mites establish themselves inside ductwork. In hillside neighborhoods near the Palisades, split-level and bi-level homes often have ducts routed through unheated crawlspaces or sandwiched between floors. We’ve found crushed flex duct and disconnected runs hidden behind finished walls more often here than in flatter markets nearby. It’s not a design flaw; it’s the reality of retrofitting modern comfort into steep, mid-century footprints.
Our Main North Bergen Services
North Bergen homeowners call us most often for these three jobs, each handled with written pricing and our 365-Day Done Right Promise.
Air Duct Cleaning in North Bergen
We clean the full supply and return network using a Rotobrush rotary brush system paired with high-volume vacuum extraction. In North Bergen, that means working around short, oddly routed duct runs in older basements and checking for cross-unit leakage in converted multi-families. We photograph the interior before and after, and the price is locked before we start. Air Duct Cleaning in North Bergen
Dryer Vent Cleaning in North Bergen
Lint accumulation in dryer vents is a genuine fire hazard, especially in North Bergen’s older two- and three-family buildings where vents may run longer distances or terminate in awkward wall locations. We clear the full run from appliance to termination, inspect for proper airflow, and flag any code issues with the setup. Dryer Vent Cleaning in North Bergen
Duct Sealing in North Bergen
Leaky ducts in North Bergen’s older housing waste conditioned air into unheated crawlspaces and between units. We seal accessible joints with mastic and mechanical fasteners, then pressure-test to verify improvement. In homes with shared systems, this work can meaningfully reduce cross-unit air transfer.
